Home Details
Located in the heart of Shepherd Park Plaza, 1043 Martin presents a rare opportunity to revive and reimagine a 3,200+ square foot home on a generously sized lot in one of Houston’s most community-driven neighborhoods.
This one-story property offers strong bones, generous room sizes, and a functional layout that invites renovation or customization. With five bedrooms, multiple living areas, and expansive square footage, the footprint alone provides incredible potential for modern redesign, expansion, or thoughtful restoration. Set just 10 minutes from The Heights and 20 minutes from Downtown Houston, Shepherd Park Plaza continues to see steady appreciation driven by its engaged Civic Association, Garden Club, Volunteer Constable Program, and beloved annual neighborhood events. Residents enjoy a true sense of connection rarely found this close to the city. For buyers seeking space, location, and long-term upside — this is the kind of property that doesn’t come along often.
